Review & Recipe – Smoothie Project by Catherine McCord @weelicious @AbramsBooks #AbramsDinnerParty #sponsored

StoreyBook Reviews 

 

 

I love smoothies.  I drink one pretty much every morning before heading off to work.  I am a creature of habit and do the same smoothie, so I was excited to receive this book as part of Abram’s Dinner Party to maybe break out of my delicious rut!

This Smoothie book offers so many options and starts off with how to organize, easy ways to prep ahead of time, tools you will need, and so much more.  If you are new to smoothies or want to expand your horizons (like me) then this is an excellent starter book.

There is so much goodness in this book!  There are suggestions at the end as to which smoothies might be best to achieve a goal or address a health concern.  There is a list of Super Boosters to add to any smoothie you make, and even a discussion about fresh versus frozen.  I have learned a lot from this book and plan to share it with my sister who also enjoys a good smoothie.

I love the photos in this book, they are so colorful – all the colors of the rainbow.

I am going to share one of the smoothie recipes with you to try out at home.  The photo is from the book since I haven’t tried this one yet.
